Unexpected $5 / 2^{-}$ spin of the ground state in $^{147}$ Ba: No octupole deformation in ground states of odd- $A$ Ba isotopes

Journal Article Rząca-Urban, T. ; Urban, W. ; Smith, A. G. ; ... - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

The ¹⁴⁷Ba nucleus has been studied in prompt γ-ray spectroscopy using the EUROGAM2 Ge array. Spin and parity of the ground state has been determined to be 5/2^-. The unexpected, 5/2^- ground state results from interaction with other negative-parity configurations. A new ground-state band has been established in ¹⁴⁷Ba and some previously reported levels have been arranged into a 3/2^- band, which may correspond to the 3/2^-[532] configuration. The new spin assignments in ¹⁴⁷Ba suggest that the theoretical predictions of static octupole deformation in the ground state of ¹⁴⁷Ba may not be be valid.

Spin-Orbit Coupling Controlled $J = 3 / 2$ Electronic Ground State in $5 d^{3}$ Oxides

Journal Article Taylor, A. E. ; Calder, S. ; Morrow, R. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Entanglement of spin and orbital degrees of freedom drives the formation of novel quantum and topological physical states. Here we report resonant inelastic x-ray scattering measurements of the transition metal oxides Ca3LiOsO6 and Ba2YOsO6, which reveals a dramatic spitting of the t2g manifold. We invoke an intermediate coupling approach that incorporates both spin-orbit coupling and electron-electron interactions on an even footing and reveal that the ground state of 5d3-based compounds, which has remained elusive in previously applied models, is a novel spin-orbit entangled J=3/2 electronic ground state. This work reveals the hidden diversity of spin-orbit controlled ground states in 5dmore »« less

Spin-Orbit Coupling Controlled $J = 3 / 2$ Electronic Ground State in $5 d^{3}$ Oxides

Journal Article Taylor, A. E. ; Calder, S. ; Morrow, R. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Spin-orbit entanglement in 5d-based transition metal oxides (TMOs) has been identified as a route to a host of unconventional physical states including quantum spin liquids, Weyl semimetals, and axion insulators. Yet despite intense interest, no clear rules have emerged for the treatment of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in 5d TMOs outside of idealised LS or jj coupling paradigms. This is exemplified in 5d³ oxides in which an orbitally-quenched singlet ground state is anticipated, yet SOC is manifest in the observed magnetic properties. Here we solve this long-outstanding puzzle by revealing that the electronic ground state of Os5+ 5d³ ions is anmore »« less

Preferential Eu Site Occupation and Its Consequences in the Ternary Luminescent Halides ${AB}_{2} I_{5} : {Eu}^{2 +}$ ( $A = Li - Cs$ ; $B = Sr$ , Ba)

Journal Article Fang, C. M. ; Biswas, Koushik - Physical Review Applied

Several rare-earth-doped, heavy-metal halides have recently been identified as potential next-generation luminescent materials with high efficiency at low cost. AB₂I₅:Eu²⁺ (A=Li–Cs; B=Sr, Ba) is one such family of halides. Its members, such as CsBa₂I₅:Eu²⁺ and KSr₂I₅:Eu²⁺, are currently being investigated as high-performance scintillators with improved sensitivity, light yield, and energy resolution less than 3% at 662 keV. Within the AB₂I₅ family, our first-principles-based calculations reveal two remarkably different trends in Eu site occupation. The substitutional Eu ions occupy both eightfold-coordinated B1(VIII) and the sevenfold-coordinated B2(VII) sites in the Sr-containing compounds. However, in the Ba-containing crystals, Eu ions strongly prefer themore »« less

Ground-state and isomeric-state cross sections for $^{181}$ Ta( $n, 2 n$ ) $^{180}$ Ta between 8 and 15 MeV

Journal Article Bhatia, C. ; Gooden, M. E. ; Tornow, W. ; ... - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

Using the activation technique, the cross section for the reaction ¹⁸¹Ta(n,2n)^180gTa was measured from 8 to 15 MeV in small energy steps to resolve inconsistencies in the existing database. The 93.4 keV γ ray from the decay of the ^180gTa ground state was recorded with a high-purity germanium (HPGe) detector. The monitor reactions ²⁷Al(n,α)²⁴Na and ¹⁹⁷Au(n,2n)¹⁹⁶Au were used for neutron fluence determination. The ENDF VII.1 and TENDL 2011 evaluations are in considerable disagreement with the present data, which in turn agree very well with the majority of the existing data in the 14 MeV energy region. Furthermore, a detailed analysismore »« less
